Mariah Carey and James Packer have called off their engagement, a rep for the singer confirmed to Entertainment Tonight. “Mariah and James had a fight in Greece, and have not seen each other since,” the statement read. “The fight was not because of any cheating allegations or excessive spending by Mariah. James is one of the most successful businessmen in the world. They are trying to work it out. Right now, they’re not sure if they will stay together. They are discussing it, and plan to release an official statement together about their future.”

According to a TMZ report, Mariah Carey and James Packer’s split stemmed from an incident that happened while they were vacationing on a yacht in Greece. A source told the website that Packer allegedly did “something really bad” involving Carey’s assistant that prompted her to ditch the yachting trip and head back to L.A.

This is the painful reality of modern marriages, regardless of whether you’re a couple of nobodies living in any-city-America or Hollywood lovebirds like Brad and Angelina, it all ends the same. Let’s face it, the dynamics of marriage obeys the laws of Newtonian physics in that you’ll fly high for a while simply on the sheer, indisputable power of love & lust, but once those two forces of nature fizzle out, the ever-present force of gravity takes its harsh, yet predictable toll and everything—yes, even those seemingly once-indestructible marriages—come crashing down to reality.

Since Brad & Angelina are far from normal, I think it’s safe to say that the media will magnify every detail of this divorce into daily talking points. To be completely honest, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if we’re talking about this for at least another month or more.

THE FACTS
Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt! Jolie filed legal the paperwork this past Monday citing irreconcilable differences and she is asking for physical custody of the couple’s 6 children. According to the papers, it appears Jolie doesn’t want Brad to have joint physical custody but instead only joint legal custody.

Statement from Angie’s lawyer:
“This decision was made for the health of the family,” Robert Offer, an attorney for Jolie tells USA TODAY in a statement. “She will not be commenting at this time, and asks that the family be given their privacy during this difficult time.” (Source: USA Today)

Counter statement from Brad:
Pitt soon released his own statement. “I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids,” he told People. “I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.” (Source: People)

THE RUMORS
Sources close to the couple say the split has to do with the way Brad was parenting the children.

Brad cheating on Angelina with Marion Cotillard.

Brad reportedly smokes too much pot and the kids are starting to get curious.

Our sources say, Angelina became “fed up” with Brad’s consumption of weed and possibly alcohol, and mixed with what she believes is “an anger problem” … felt it became dangerous for the children. (Source: TMZ)

THE THEORIES
Angelina Jolie is pissed that Brad Pitt is the cooler parent and the kids like him more, so she’s getting him out of the picture.

Brad exposed the kids to things they’re far too young to see & do.

Brad & Angelina’s parenting styles differed and since Angelina believes everything she reads about herself in the media (i.e. she’s perfect, she’s the world’s greatest woman, she’s God’s gift to the planet, she’s the savior of all children in need, etc., etc.), she needed to eject Brad from their lives parent correctly—the Angelina Jolie way!

So, I think two things are pretty much confirmed: 1) Halle Berry is a very difficult person when it comes to relationships and 2) Halle needs to pass on any future marriage plans and simply enjoy the sugar momma single life!

Judging by Halle’s child custody battle with her male model sugar baby Gabriel Aubry, I think it’s safe to assume that Halle will put a big fight to win custody of her son Maceo that she had with Olivier Martinez.

These are dated photos snapped on August 29 as the couple were spotted having breakfast at La Conversation in West Hollywood. Even the convo they’re having over the meal looks a little heated.

There are crazy rumors flying around Sean Penn is apparently busy nibbling on Minka Kelly’s meaty legs these days (I hope these are just bad rumors), so it’s likely he’ll let Jennifer Garner simmer on the single-ladies grill for a few weeks before working his leathery charm.

It seems like the divorce rumors were in the air ever since Ben Affleck bagged that Oscar, so their recent announcement shouldn’t come as a total surprise. They’re calling it quits after 10 years in the marriage slammer. The pair released a joint statement yesterday—just a day following their 10th anniversary—saying, “After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce. We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy we ask to be respected during this difficult time. This will be our only comment on this private, family matter. Thank you for understanding.” They have three kids together: Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3.

So, who do you guys think that Ben Affleck will take to the “Batman” premiere?

Sarah Hyland finally broke up with her longtime boyfriend Matt Prokop after realizing that she’s A-List and he’s No-List. We should also mention that the douche was physically & verbally abusing the ‘Modern Family’ star. What’s up with all the domestic violence in the news as of late?

Let’s face it, the reason behind their breakup is fairly obvious. Matt Prokop is one of those dudes who couldn’t handle his girlfriend’s success (she’s worth around $6-10 million), so he decided to do what any loser would do in his situation. He decided to assert his manliness by way of physical & verbal abuse, which is very sad & pathetic.

With the help of a restraining order, Sarah is officially free form this dude (that’s assuming she hires the proper security detail), but that doesn’t exactly mean she’s ready to jump into another relationship next week—at least not with just anybody! She wasted away precious years of her youth with an abusive nobody, so now she has to make up for lost time by dating an A-list actor, at the minimum or an extremely well-heeled businessman (yacht & private jet owner). Sarah, if you need help filtering through the douche bags, don’t hesitate to contact us!

There was a chance (something like 0.000000000000001%) that Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa would’ve proven the naysayers wrong and followed through on those marriage vows, but it appears Amber Rose thinks that Wiz Khalifa would be a horrible role model for their one-year-old son Sebastian.

Really?!

What happened to thinking differently, Amber? Plus, aren’t you the one known as the Hip-Hop Ho? Wiz Khalifa is just a rapper who smokes too much weed and thinks he’ll be a 19-year-old forever.

According to court papers, the couple officially separated on Monday, September 22 after Amber filed for divorce, citing boring old “irreconcilable differences” as the reason behind the breakup. On top of that, Amber is lawyered-up and wants to fight for sole custody, which could make the divorce process very messy. The documents, obtained by TMZ.com, also reveal the estranged couple signed a pre-nuptial agreement before tying the knot on back in July, 2013. Wiz has yet to comment on the break-up, which emerges one month after they appeared to be all over each other on the red carpet at the MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles.

Let’s face it, it was inevitable, so Big Sean should count his blessing that the breakup happened before he tied the knot and Naya popped out a couple kids. Here’s the statement coming out of the Team Big Sean:
“After careful thought and much consideration, Sean has made the difficult decision to call the wedding off. The recent rumors and accusations reported by so-called or fake sources are simply untrue. Sean wishes Naya nothing but the best and it is still his hope that they can continue to work through their issues privately. We will not be commenting again on this matter.”

The “rumors” are in reference to a recent Star magazine article accusing Big Sean of cheating on Naya (wouldn’t surprise us). It’s obvious that Naya is one of those crazy jealous chicks, who might completely lose it one night & slice off Big Sean’s biggest asset, so it’s better to be safe than sorry. Plus, any chick who fails to take the contents of a Star magazine article with a grain of salt deserves is somewhat questionable as a long-term investment. Big Sean has a lot going for him, so why fuck it all up by getting into a shitty marriage?

It’s one thing to fall in love with and marry a dude who came in 8th place on ‘American Idol’ (yup, she apparently loved his voice that much!), but she took it a step further and decided to do an album with the guy. We all know Nikki Reed doesn’t exactly think straight, but what about Paul McDonald?! The guy fell into money and then proceeded to fuck it all up by doing some bullshit passion-project with his wife.

Who does that?

The only passion project married couples should be dabbling in are scantily-clothed projects that take place inside dimly-lit rooms behind closed doors. The guy already struck the lottery by marrying into ‘Twilight’ money, so why did he think it would be a good idea to do an album with his wife?!? You can’t possibly spend 24/7 with the same chick and expect everything to go well. Isn’t that covered in Marriage 101?!

Long story short, as if we didn’t already know the inevitable when Nikki Reed impulsively tied the knot back in 2011, the actress recently decided she was through fooling around with love and wanted to concentrate her efforts on someone more long-term and financially stable—like maybe a producer or director and hopefully this time, somebody who’s an A-lister. Hey, we all make mistakes, so it’s all good as long as Nikki had the dude sign a prenup.

And, for those of you who were looking forward to the joint album, no worries because Nikki and Paul plan to continue working on it since it’s due later this year. That’s a good one. Something tells me that the album will get pushed back…

After what probably felt as an eternity, Cold Play lead singer finally threw in the towel on his marriage with overly pretentious & pathologically self-consumed actress Gwyneth Paltrow (OK, maybe we’re being a little too harsh). Since she’s famous for making other people feel like worthless pieces of shit, let’s review a list of G-Paltrow quotes that help to shed some light on the type of person Chris Martin has to no longer deal with…

Gwyneth talks nanny and kids:

“She’s French, so she’s teaching them French, and their previous nanny was Spanish, so they’re fluent in Spanish.”

European life:

“It is so different from the United States. It seemed to have a history, and the buildings are years and years and years old. Here in the United States an old building is about 17 (years old), and over there it’s from 500 B.C., it’s incredible.”

“We have great dinner parties at which everyone sits around talking about politics, history, art and literature—all this peppered with really funny jokes. But back in America, I was at a party and a girl looked at me and said, ‘Oh, my God! Are those Juicy jeans that you’re wearing?’ and I thought, I can’t stay here. I have to get back to Europe. I love America too. It is just a more adolescent culture.”

“When you go to Paris and your concierge sends you to some restaurant because they get a kickback, it’s like, ‘No. Where should I really be? Where is the great bar with organic wine? Where do I get a bikini wax in Paris?’

In a Cosmo article (that Chris Martin probably missed):

“We’re human beings and the sun is the sun—how can it be bad for you? I don’t think anything that’s natural can be bad for you.”

The fact that she’s so endearing toward other people:

“Even actresses that you really admire, like Reese Witherspoon, you think, ‘Another romantic comedy?’ You see her in something like Walk the Line and think, ‘God, you’re so great!’ And then you think, ‘Why is she doing these stupid romantic comedies?’ But of course, it’s for money and status.”

“I am who I am. I can’t pretend to be somebody who makes $25,000 a year.”

Loves to let people know that she’s friends with Jay Z & Queen B:

“[Moses] is obsessed with hip-hop and wanted a gold chain like his uncle Jay-Z.”

“Beyoncé’s like, ‘Okay. The singing is great. But you’re not having any fun.’ She’s like, ‘Remember when we were at Jay’s concert and Panjabi MC comes on and you do your crazy Indian dance? Do that. Be you!’”

“I don’t hold on to fear as much as I used to, because I’ve learned a lot about genuinely not caring what strangers think about me. It’s very liberating. It’s very empowering, and I’ve learned a lot of that from Jay—Shawn Carter—Z, because his approach to life is very internal. It’s a very good lesson to learn.”

Looks Like G-P will be listening to a lot of hip hop…

“He [Chris Martin] can’t have background music on. It has to be 100 percent of his attention. But if he isn’t at home, I turn on the hip-hop. I’m like a bad mutha rapping along to every word as I cook.”

Here’s G-P discussing what she wants as her last meal…

“Oysters and cocktail sauce, and then a baked, stuffed lobster and french fries. I would have a baguette and a cheese course for my dessert, and red wine. I drank like crazy [when the kids were babies]. How else could I get through my day?”

G-P confirming that she lives inside a bubble:

“I think that women, especially women in my job, come to me because they know I’m very loving and nonjudgmental and I’m not competitive, and I’ve been through a lot.”

“Ever since Robin Thicke and Paula Patton announced they were separating earlier this week, ‘Mr. ‘Blurred Lines” has spent every waking minute trying to win his back his wife.”[MTV]

It’s probably more surprising to know that Robin Thicke is trying to reconcile with estranged wife Paula Patton than the fact that the two split up in the first place (I mean, come on!)

But there are some ways the singer can try and really win her back – and they don’t involve the blurring of lines, Miley Cyrus, or the donning of 80s-esque Beetlejuice pantsuits. Here’s a few suggestions:

Grow His Hair Really Long, Become A Bike Messenger: Yes, this is basically the plot of the “When I Get You Alone” video. So what?
